Lesnar:Carwin = Nelson:JDS

 

[Baby Milo]

wow at nelsons chin

 

[Zeke]

Nelson looks fucking lost he has no answers for JD

 

[dem]

JDS is gonna be tired now..

he was unloading..

 

[akachan ningen]

Damn, that was painful to watch.

 

[Revolutionary]

:lol That was entertaining

 

[X26]

you know, going into this i didn't think that having a large stomach/body fat could be a liability in MMA...

he's just so slow, even with a slow upper coming at him it tkes him forever to get his hands up

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Oooh this better not be Russow vs Duffee all over again.

 

[Not a Jellyfish]

Woooow...JDS just tagging Roy over and over again. :lol

 

[Zeliard]

Fuck, JDS is gassing and Roy can always land a big shot.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Nelson is a nice story and a fun guy to root for but Im not so sure he can survive against the elite UFC heavys.

 

[dem]

Oooh this better not be Russow vs Duffee all over again.

im terrified

 

[X26]

oh fuck!

 

[Kusagari]

Big Country can still win this.

 

[Ducarmel]

Santos should try some leg kicks

 

[Chris R]

Nelson is a nice story and a fun guy to root for but Im not so sure he can survive against the elite UFC heavys.

From what I've seen he has a great chin, he would just be better if he lost one or two of them and conditioned himself :lol

 

[Brinbe]

Just employing the Homer Simpson strategy, let your opponent punch himself out. :lol

 

[the_log_ride]

no way nelson... no take downs

 

[Kusagari]

Santos should try some leg kicks

I have no idea why he isn't mixing it up and instead is just throwing punches.

 

[ToxicAdam]

Nelson is a nice story and a fun guy to root for but Im not so sure he can survive against the elite UFC heavys.

He's like a Heavyweight version of Chris Leben.

 

[scorcho]

oh please don't make him the embodiment of American exceptionalism...

 

[Zeke]

man those body shots are so loud

 

[the_log_ride]

3rd round.... did not expect this.... dat chin

 

[scorcho]

and John Kruk survives another round.

 

[dem]

Dos Santos is connecting over and over with the jab

 

[Baby Milo]

2-0 Dos Santos

 

[Ninja Scooter]

From what I've seen he has a great chin, he would just be better if he lost one or two of them and conditioned himself :lol

i wonder how easy/hard/feasible it would be for him to drop down to 205. I mean, say what you will but the guy is still an athlete, probably trains hard as fuck and still has a belly, maybe he's just a naturally, genetically portly guy no matter what.

 

[Ducarmel]

I have no idea why he isn't mixing it up and instead is just throwing punches.

Yeah and Country elbows are so high up I bet any decent fighter can sneak in a nice kick to the mid section.

 

[BamYouHaveAids]

Roy Nelson by Rocky strategy.

 

[BigKaboom2]

One round apiece, JDS gassed, Big Country still dazed from the first I think.

 

[dem]

One round apiece, JDS gassed, Big Country still dazed from the first I think.

How the hell do you give that round to Nelson?

 

[ToxicAdam]

One round apiece, JDS gassed, Big Country still dazed from the first I think.

Fail

 

[akachan ningen]

One round apiece

no way.

 

[the_log_ride]

like that front kick to the head ....

 

[Zeke]

One round apiece

uh no just no

 

[Judderman]

One round apiece, JDS gassed, Big Country still dazed from the first I think.

...:lol

 

[bone_and_sinew]

One round apiece, JDS gassed, Big Country still dazed from the first I think.

Cecil Peoples is that you?

 

[Darkman M]

nelson looks tired as shit.

 

[Chris R]

205 is a dream really, but IDK it might be possible. I'll say this though, I thought he was more like 280-290 than 263,

 

[dem]

The composure of Dos Santos has been most impressive

 

[Fifty]

Roy's next fight should be a catchweight against the Korean Zombie.

 

[Ducarmel]

:lol both fighters are gassed

 

[Zeliard]

I think Roy's been gassed since fairly early in the first round, since he wasted a lot of energy trying to take Dos Santos down with that first attempt.

 

[Brinbe]

just toying with him

 

[ToxicAdam]

Can't counterpunch when you are eating jabs and uppercuts all night, Roy.

 

[ha1f]

cant believe nelson still moves forward

 

[BobTheFork]

I love fighters who can take a shot to the face but damn.

edit: those gut shots lol It looks like he's punching a bag of dough.

 

[the_log_ride]

If this isn't a unanimous decision, I'll be a monkey's uncle.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

i take back what I said about the loser of this fight getting Carwin. I think Nelson is more likely to get the Couture/Toney winner.

 

[Zeliard]

That was a one-sided beatdown, but fun to watch, and great show of class.
